Are you social? A social outcast?

I don't care too much to socialize, I am not much of a people person. They tend to disappoint or annoy me.
I do fine in social situations, it's just that if I had a choice I likely wouldn't be there.

I'm extremely social. Too much for some people. I make the antisocial people nervous.

If you put your pants back on everything would be cool.

 
im social at school and work, but dont have many friends outside of either of those. in addition to being tremendously busy, i have trust issues, and i have "most people bug the fuck out of me" issues that keeps it from bothering me too much.

I'm pretty social. I try to be nice to everyone, and it usually works out. I just don't bother hanging out with people who I find annoying.

Get out more.
 
Used to be very shy and antisocial. I broke out of that in my mid twenties and and am alot more social now.
 
social but like others i don't mind staying @ home and chilling either

i'm approaching my mid-30s... i quite enjoy curling up with a book or movie, even if i know there is partying goin on.
 
Somewhat social I guess. I don't go out a ton, but I do play in a dart league Thursday evenings, and usually go to the bar every weekend, and will do stuff with my roommate (e.g. go to the casino, shopping, w/e).
 
Very social...but I'm a senior in high school...

Although once in a while I wish I could jsut sit at home and chill for a night or two.
 
being social/out-going doesn't come naturally to me, but I've learned how to turn it on when the situation requires it.

I was like B-list popular in high school/college once I figured out what I had to do to get people to like me, I've still got a strong group of friends from those days, and I'm probably one of the most well-liked people in my company across different departments, but TBH, I'd be just as happy working from home and not interacting with anyone on a regular basis.
 
I'm not naturally social, but I do prefer hanging out with people (rather than online) so I make an effort to be social and given a choice I won't be at home (unless George RR Martin finally releases the next aSoIaF book).
 
Very social. I'm out all the time. I travel a lot and try to meet new people nightly. I can't understand why people have issues with meeting and spending time with new people.

I'm the same when it comes to work though. I hang out and see people on my time.
 
Asocial. Having to go out 3 times in a week (my current average) is 2 times too many. I would much rather stay home and read, watch a movie, or go for a run by myself.

Back in college I wasn't really a social outcast, I was more antisocial than anything. I just did not like hanging out with people for whatever reason, mostly cause of anxiety, even though I had plenty of opportunity to.

I broke out of that habit by just forcing myself to go out. Now I think I go out too much
 
God damn this thread is depressing. This will be my last post on AT, I realise what I will become if I keep posting here.
